Editing Debt

A cost in {{Debt}} is orthogonal to a cost in a {{Cost}}; cards with {{Debt}} in their cost do not cost less or more than cards with a {{Cost}} cost.  {{Debt}} and {{Cost||||P}} are similarly not comparable.   

|Text=Okay so Debt. That reddish hexagon means you don't pay for City Quarter or Royal Blacksmith up front. Instead you take some tokens that say how much you owe. While you have the tokens, you can't buy cards or [[Event]]s. Those are the only things you can't do; you can still play cards, including the one that got you into Debt if you draw that one; you can still trash cards and get attacked and win the game and so on. You can pay off Debt tokens in your Buy phase, before and/or after buying cards, at {{Cost|1}} per token. So, you have {{Cost|4}}, you buy City Quarter, you get {{Debt|8}}, you pay off {{Debt|4}} of it immediately, you have {{Debt|4}} left. In your next Buy phase, if you had {{Cost|6}}, you could pay off the rest of your {{Debt}} and then have {{Cost|2}} left to spend. Get it? It's pretty simple. The one tricky thing is how these things work when cards compare costs. There it works like {{Cost||||P}}: apples and oranges. A reddish hexagon with an 8 isn't more or less than {{Cost|3}}. There's a rulebook, okay? It covers all the tricky things. And uh why a hexagon, why that color? The physical tokens are reddish hexagons.

|Text=A card that referred to {{Debt}} would most games be referring to nothing, except to the degree that the card itself also provided debt. I mean you deal out 10 random cards and mostly don't get one with {{Debt}}. Whereas {{Card|Apothecary}} knows {{Card|Potion}} is in the game, because it put it there. {{Card|Apprentice}}, the {{Cost||||P}} clause there was a mistake; it was the only card in the set that didn't involve {{Cost||||P}}, so I put on that clause, which doubles as answering the rules question that comes up there. But mostly it just makes the card more complex.
